Offroad Navigator

[rafaelaka]

Does anyone have any experience installing Webazar's Offroad Navigator 1.7B on TomTom One v4 version 7.162?
Because I've installed it, and it freezes my TomTom. I didn't changed the config file because I didn't find it in the offroad folder.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Yes.

Did you follow these instructions?
* install Offroad Navigator on your Tomtom
* run it once, the screen is garbaged
* stop it by clicking in the upper right corner of the screen
* connect your Tomtom to your PC and edit the file /offroad/config.txt with Wordpad
* in this file, change the line screenadaptation none in screenadaptation rider2
* save your mods and re-start your Tomtom
* run Offroad Navigator, the screen is OK

I installed "BridgeMaster" & it runs, but i cannot figure out how to get it working. I have full satellite signal but the compass & everything just stays where it is, even when i walk around with the GPS, the compass did move for a second & the froze at the one position. I also managed to install "Offroad" by manually copying the folders to the GPS's memory but i get no GPS updates just like with "BridgeMaster" . Any ideas ???

with bridgemaster, you can adapt the colors by klicking on the titel "bridgemaster". In the next window you can configure the colors in RGB
You can define a target by klicking on the GPS position left bottom part. In the next window, you klick on the latitude and longitude to enter the destination values. In the same window, you klick on the colored buttons to define if on the compass you want to see the source, destination, target, north, ...
The compass only shows the direction to north when it get it from the GPS. You need to drive thatfor. With x40 devices, only walking round at home is not sufficient to permit the Go to understand in which direction you are moving.

BridgeMaster will show you under the speed, the distance driven since start, the linear distance since start and the linear distance to target.
